Ignition problem.
My 2000 Bonie did not start this morning. I replaced the battery, and checked Ignition fuses and relays.
It had happen before but after several attemps the car started. But now is totally dead.
Any advice about what the problem might be?
Thanks.

The start does not activate at all.
The light work just fine since the battery is new.
When I turn the key on, there is no sound at all.
I believe the parking shift switch is working fine since it is opening the door locks.

There was a technical service bulleting issued for the ignition switch
Another possibility is what 2000Silverbullet experienced.

Thanks for the advice. Do you know the procedure for removing and re-installing the ignition switch?
I would like to check it out and see if it is broken before ordering the part.

Did you check the fuse as listed in the link to Silverbullet'* post? You can try the security relearn procedure here http://www.intense-racing.com/sec_relearn.html, but that shouldn't be a problem unless you've replaced some module.
